Tee hee!! Alright maybe not that bad, but i'm carrying more weight in my torso than I ever thought. So this was a good exercise.
Placing some tracing paper over my computer screen and an image of me in my yoga pants and a t-shirt this was my shape. Really not that far off from the Venus of Willendorf.

I think this was a bit of a surprise but not really, most of how I look at myself is in my bathroom mirrors which are from hip to head, not really taking in the full picture. I have a full length mirror but rarely use it because it has a chair in front of it. Time to free up the full length mirror.

We don't have a single full length mirror in the whole house! It would be a good idea to have one, but I am kind of happy without one!
I also have a tendency to suck my stomach in when I look at myself in the mirror, I'm thinking, hmmm maybe I could achieve this with another 10 lb weight loss. Or it could just be denial;) What I'm really thinking is, oh God, I don't really look like that! Nope it's not me.
Ehm, last time you mentioned you were a pear, I thought you looked more like a full hourglass to me. I would say the same from your croqui. Well, that's good news! Better a hourglass than a pear!
And I know what you mean, I suck my stomach in from time to time, too. :-) Why don't we accept ourselves as we are? Don't you find the Venus of Willendorf perfect?
Plus, you can always go for the bombshell look! I'd love that, but miss the most important ingredients, sigh.
I thought I said apple, my mother would disagree, she liked pear shapes better, because it's difficult to fit a larger chest, especially in a dress. Don't we always want what we don't have? I agree the Venus is a cutie, but if she were a real person, we would send her to the gym. I have plans to make a waist cincher later in the year, maybe I can fake a bombshell.
